Friends,

Welcome to the new(ish) year. I hope it's a happy and healthy one for all. Big thanks to Carrie Kingsley for hosting an amazing Chanukah party last month. My personal highlight was the delicious food and the impromptu Salsa dance lesson. After all, they have Chanukah in Puerto Rico. Que rico!

This Friday (1/8) the lovely Laura Nova hosts us in her incredible apartment in the sky for a night of prayer, socializing and dinner. She's serving a Vegetable Moussaka, so she asks people to bring anything they like; North African or Mediterranean themes are appreciated. We're also looking for people to bring salad, fruit, challot, kosher wine, etc. Please RSVP to kolhakfar@yahoo.com to indicate what you can bring.

Laura Nova, 6:30pm
383 Grand, Apt. M11-03 (Seward Park building)
